Disambiguation pages

edit

Please note that disambiguation pages like Maas are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:

  • Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
  • Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
  • Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
  • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
  • Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
  • Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory

There are several articles that mention "Manufacturing as a service" but none suggest that MaaS is a common acronym. If you would like to add the acronym to an existing article (Design manufacture service or Design manufacture service?), preferably with a reference that supports its use, then it could be added back to the DAB page with that link.

  Hello, I'm Hey man im josh. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Andrew Wakefield seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:43, 8 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wheelie bike, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page LIFE. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. FMSky (talk) 08:47, 1 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

@FMSky Thanks for your courtesy note. Let me reassure you that I completely reject partisan editing. All of the edits you have deleted are cited factual. They may be uncompromisingly truthful, but none are partisan. I'm now wondering if maybe you have torn through your list of jobs so quickly that you didn't give yourself enough time to read the deliberately verbose & explanatory edit summaries that I had left. If you had read them before deleting the legitimate, non-partisan, encyclopedic content I had added, you may have had second thoughts and left the content where it belonged. Meanwhile, I've put a more detailed reply on your talk page. Hope to hear from you soon. Cheers! Bluevista99 (talk) 16:58, 1 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
Is really not that complicated, we don't use descriptions like "notorious fraudster" (link), "noted anti-vaccine agititors" (link), "trenchant hard-core fascist, racist, anti-Semite, and holocaust denier" (link, and in this case it wasn't even sourced), see WP:NPOV. And regarding your edit here (link), that was simply unsourced ---FMSky (talk) 01:55, 2 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
Just gonna add a couple points here. First, see Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch#contentious labels. Second, with a couple exceptions, editors can remove what they want from their own talk pages. TornadoLGS (talk) 04:58, 2 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
